Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles is an action game based on the late eighties/early nineties cartoon series of the same name. Play as Leonardo, Michelangelo, Donatello and Raphael (one turtle only, but the ability to swap between turtles at any time) as you save your friends and battle The Shredder and his cronies. There are no 'lives', as such - when you lose a turtle, he becomes 'captured', and you cannot use him again until you rescue him from a place hidden in the overworld.
Gameplay takes place in two perspectives: a top-down view, which lets you run around and explore buildings, sewers and other places. When entering places from the top-down view, the perspective shifts to a side-scrolling view, where most of the battling takes place. In addition to each turtle's main weapon, sub-weapons (such as shuriken) can be acquired, to use at foes - these have a limited use. ... (more)(less)

I've heard a lot of people say that this game is hard. Maybe it's because this was the first game I owned for the NES (aside from the Mario/Duck Hunt/Track Meet cart), and thus, have plenty of time put into it, but I have very little trouble getting through this game. The underwater dam area that everyone complains about is actually my favorite part of the game. I actually enjoy making my way through the electrifie"

"Sick and tired of games that are too easy? Yeah, you won't have that problem with this game. TMNT the NES game starts off easy, and gets harder and harder, until you're screaming at the screen, tearing your hair out, wonderin why you do this to yourself. I love the game even though I have yet to beat the final level.

"Maybe its a sense of accomplishment, I can't explain it, but I still go through this game regularly and always have fun doing it. I know when I was younger I could not even get by the dam, like most people. So kind of like a bully when you are younger you can't beat up but when you get older and smarter you hold your own and it feels awesome. But as I got older and went back and made it a point to get through the game I really got into to it to the point where I want to do a speed run for it. "
